'''Fuel Cells''' are a collectible item in ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]''. Their purpose is to power-up [[Fox McCloud|Fox]]'s [[Arwing]], so he can reach the four [[SpellStone]] locations on [[Sauria|Dinosaur Planet]]. There are 75 of them scattered all over Sauria, where they were dropped by [[R.O.B. 64]], who had a few problems getting them to the surface. They can also be bought in [[ThornTail Store]] for ten [[Scarab]]s each. Only 42 are needed to finish the game however: five to reach the [[DarkIce Mines]], ten to make it to the [[CloudRunner Fortress]], 12 to land into the [[Walled City]] and 15 to get to the [[Dragon Rock]]. Through hacking, it is revealed that Fox can carry up to 255 Fuel Cells at once. They are dark blue, sparkling head-size spheres in appearance.

Fuel Cells drastically differ in appearance between both games. In ''Star Fox Adventures'', Fuel Cells are blue spheres containing a spark of electricity inside. In ''Star Fox Command'', Fuel Cells are much larger, about the size of spacecraft. It was changed to a green orb with a red circle orbiting it.
In ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', the Fuel Cells add 25 seconds to a character's timer. Their appearance has changed significantly from ''Star Fox Adventures''. They are green orbs with a smaller, purple sphere speeding around them. They can be found in missions, often hidden by fog of war, on the main map. They can also be retrieved from enemies.
